On April the 20th of 2015 a large alarm echoed throughout the city of Atlanta. The alarm was centered at the Center for Disease Control. Massive panic and hysteria broke out from everyone who heard the alarm and either ran away from the city or tried to drive away. Meanwhile at the CDC, two workers are having a aggressive argument. "Sir we have to evacuate the facility immediately!", said the CDC supervisor. "I can't I have to do this Giles. This is the only way to do it no matter the cost.", said the CDC Director. " Please James from one friend to another, this will cost thousands maybe millions of people's lives. We have no idea of the effect of this virus. The decontamination process has already been compromised!", cried out Giles. James punches Giles knocking him out cold and James begins to cry softly as Military personnel is leading the workers out. James locked down the facility to prevent the disease from escaping, all doors that lead to an exit was locked and barricaded with impenetrable steel, not even a bomb could destroy it. The windows however did seem like an escape route, so one of the soldiers took out a grenade, pulled the pin ,threw it at the plexiglass window and exploded and shattered the glass. The entire building was lost, the disease is now exposed to the entire nation. God knows the danger that could happen now.

THREE HOURS LATER

Mass panic throughout the city. People running away from something's or.....some people!? Why would people run from people. Well as it turns out the people chasing people were not people at all. They looked like viscous creatures. Blood covering their faces. What happened at the CDC? Military forces are shooting at people. Are they people? Are they trying to contain a virus outbreak? So many questions.

People lie dead around the CDC building. The rest of the building is barricaded. There are remaining survivors are inside. "This is fucking perfect James. You have no idea what you have just created.", Giles screamed out while grabbing James by the collar of his shirt. James punches Giles. "I LOST MY ENTIRE LIFE!", James screamed out while looking down at Giles.

The experiment was a complete failure. Or was it?
